Dear Friends
The roughest night so far with winds above 30 knots
and wawe hight approx 4-6 meters.I have been in the cocpit with Magnar since
0100 in the Morning.Magnar has become the best helmsman of us when it comes to
hand steering.Since 1600 last afternoon we have been on hand steering only(sorry
Renate that I needed help with a sail change when you called,Thats why Magnar
had to leave in a hurry).At sunrise this morning Magnar had to go forward and
secure a couple of items that had come lose.This always makes for some exiting
moments but he was ofcourse safly cliped in.Overnight the helmsman have been
clipped to both port and stb.Despite adverse weather we did another 146 from 4
to 4.The weather is slowly clearing I beleive the worst is over the wind is now
down to about 25.The chef has been limited in his reportuar by the bumps in the
road.So last night it was hotdags only.Today a greeting to Ecki.I am downing the
last underberger after a long wet night in the cocpit.Wish we had soome
more.
Best greetings from the Team onboard Morning
